      Found the Metal Gear Solid soundtrack in my old cupboard. Now I revisit some older tracks.

          @thelostsoul I grabbed Mitch Murder’s latest Selection 5 a while ago and haven’t turned it off since.

          Currently Playing: Tetris (Gameboy)

            That song above is great. Would absolutely love to create that 80s pad sound on my Yamaha AN1X.

              I listen to a custom made tracklist containing 838 songs and counting. If I hear something I like I add it and something I'd forgotten about gets added. Stick it on shuffle and I'm good to go. Mostly 90's indie and grunge , Metallica and movie soundtracks. I throw in some of my parents music that I heard as a kid so it's massively varied.

                I barely listen to music anymore but I recently rediscovered the Team StarKid channel and they had some new musicals since last time I've checked them out. And they even released a new one just a few hours ago.

                I really like the humor and their interpretation of popular stories.

                  My favourite 80s-style synthwave is this. It gives me chills every time I listen to it.

                    The whole album is highly recommended (Bandcamp page).

                        I stumbled upon this one some days ago, and now I can't let a day pass without watching it at least 2-3 times, sometimes even dancing by myself to its captivating tune. 😊

                        I learned that it's a cover version of in-game music from the Touhou Project, a series of Japanese "bullet hell" 2D shooter games which I also never have heard of before. The girls featured in the video are characters from the games.

                        There also is a rock version in English:

                          There are some very interesting posts going on here. I put them into a list and later I have a very nice playlist consisting of your choices. :D Especially those 80s styled synthesize tracks. Thanks for posting all those stuff

                          @Clyde I find that black and white videoclip very pleasing. Also the rock cover sounds good and not over tuned. Even the Japanese one gives me an earworm. Nice find.

                          That reminded me a song from the NerdOut group from one of my favorite games of actual generation, Overwatch. But be aware, it is a rap battle. lol I am not a fan of rap songs, but I like this one. Maybe I am biased.

                          Edit: Wrong link corrected.

                            @thelostsoul A very well done song! As for nerdy rap battles, do you know Epic Rap Battles of History (ERB)? I'm not that into rap songs either, but I like many of the ERB videos.

                              @Clyde Wow no, I didn't know them. Man they have like 40 or even over 100 million views. There are some very funny "battles"; the Steve Jobs vs Bill Gates is badass.

                                @thelostsoul Yeah, that one was the first ERB video I ever saw. It got me hooked. :)

                                For Christmas, I can also recommend Donald Trump vs Ebenezer Scrooge.

                                  I don't want to spam this thread, πŸ˜‡ but I recently returned to listen to a czech duo named Dva ("two" in czech) who "consider their music to be of 'tango, cabaret, circus, popsongs, kitchen beatbox, freakfolk, acoustick electro a electrical acousto in double-layer packaging.' [...] Their music is typical by use of fictional made-up languages that mixes German, Hungarian or Swedish." (quote from Wikipedia)

                                  I discovered them as the creators of the soundtrack for the game Botanicula.

                                    I don't know how I ended up being here, but yeah. That is what i listen to currently. That track is btw my favorite Final Fantasy Battle Theme (if Final Fantasy Mystic Quest Legend not counted).

                                      Currently trying to finish my play through of Castelvania Rondo of Blood (how did anyone beat this without save states?) And I have this song from the sound track stuck in my head. Overall the soundtrack to this game is awesome!

                                          Can’t decide between jazz & classical.

                                            I just stumbled over this rap battle between an US American edit: Canadian who is living in the USA and a Briton about β€žcorrect Englishβ€œ. πŸ˜‰

                                            I don't know "Professor Elemental" (yet), but Baba Brinkman is a really good "Science Rapper" I only learned about not long ago. His channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCz9Qm66ewnY0LAlZlL4HK9g

                                            This reminded me of a song from the German cabaret artists "Pigor & Eichhorn" about how non-native speakers will ruin the language of Shakespeare. 😈
